Thread: Blue Magic-Before & After Test

I just use the magic eraser by itself. Its great on tarnish. I use them on all kinds of stuff. They are quite handy to say the least.

thanks life, i'll be sure to try it out and post result pic's!

Magic Erasers might be too harsh for scales tough. I wouldn't use on shiny plastic!!!

Flitz and Maas are some of the many metal polishes out there that have been proven as good polishes and not snakeoil. I use them both and just wanted to see how they compare...better, worse, on par...you get the picture. We are always looking for something that is "better". It would be hard to beat those two, but not too uncommon to find something on par with them.

I agree with you I keep a bottle of Flitz because Maas isnt locally available for me. Sometimes its just quicker and easier to use other methods.

...what methods are you referring to?

I used to be in the President's Escort and we used Blue magic to shine our brass....Not saying it's better, it is just what we used...

I have a keystone similar to yours. do you know anything about the maker? Is it a good razor?

Try a bamboo chopstick with a bit of abrasive polish on the end. Bamboo by itself is abrasive, with some polish you canreally concentrate on a problem area or spot. Rest the blade on a piece of foam.

You can also whittle a chop stick to fit between the scales and polish that hard to get part of the tang. If you are real ambitious you can carve the end of the chopstick to match the curved part of the tang, some fine sand paper wrapped around the tang, then polish the tang between the scales.

Also a paper towel sprayed with WD40 and wrapped around a chopstick will clean the inside of the scales nicely, removing old soap and rust spots. I clean again with Simple Green to remove the WD40.

Nice job

That is pretty IMPRESSIVE for just a "polishing" compound!
